CM Punk knows the importance of main eventing WrestleMania, which is why he’s made it his main focus heading into this year’s “Showcase of the Immortals.”
In a recent WWE vlog, CM Punk expressed his desire to main event a WrestleMania pay-per-view event. He said,
“It has always been the goal. I watched guys like Bret Hart do it multiple times. So to me, as a kid growing up, I’m no different than a kid [who] watched Wayne Gretzky skate and wanted to put on a pair of skates. I’m no different than somebody who watched Michael Jordan and was like, ‘I love basketball. I want to follow in his footsteps.’”
He continued, “I’m just walking the path that great legends before me helped pave, and I want to accomplish the same things that they did. I want to breathe that air that they breathe at the highest mountaintop.”
